If you need to force a visitor to download a file from your website (not display it in their browser or MIME associated application) you can send additional HTTP headers to do just that.
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment;
filename=filename.ext")
This is very useful when it comes to common file extensions, including .doc, .txt and .html that will all display in the client's browser without intervention.
